Quote Of The Day: The Democratic Blood Feud Comes To West Virginnie

by John Hawkins | May 12, 2008 8:33 am

“None of the 22 Democrats interviewed by the Financial Times at the Clinton rally would commit themselves to voting for Mr Obama if he became the nominee, and half said they definitely would not. The depth of opposition is particularly striking considering that Mingo County is one of the most Democratic places in West Virginia, having cast about 85 per cent of its votes for the party in the 2006 midterm elections. If Mr Obama cannot win there in November, he has little chance of carrying the state.” — Financial Times[1]

Bonus Quote:

“Since the Civil War, no Democrat has ever been elected without carrying West Virginia…” — Patrick Reddy[2]
